Bb

Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans

Bb

Way back up in the woods among the evergreens

Eb

Stood a log cabin made of earth and wood

      Bb

Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Good

    F

Who never learned to read or write at all

             Bb

But he could play the guitar just like ringing a bell

Bb                                      Eb

Go, go, go Johnny go, go, go Johnny, go go

              Bb               F        Eb

Go Johnny go, go,           go go

Johnny B. Good

His mama told him "someday you will be a man

And you will be the leader of a big band

Many people coming from miles around

To hear your playing music when the sun goes down

Maybe someday you will be in lights saying Johnny B. Good"
